Benefits of routine prenatal massage1
Hormone Regulation– Studies show massage significantly alters stress hormones during pregnancy, resulting in balanced mood levels and improved cardiovascular health, as well as fewer complications during birth and fewer instances of newborn complications, such as low birth weight.
Reduction of Swelling– Massage significantly improves blood circulation and reduces the collection of fluids in swollen joints.
Improves Sciatic Pain– The pressure of the uterus spreads tension to the muscles of the upper and lower leg, causing them to swell and put pressure on nearby nerves. Massage therapy addresses the inflamed nerves by releasing muscle tension in affected areas. Many women have experienced significant reduction in sciatic nerve pain during pregnancy through regular massage.
